Project funded through MUNIRIF round 1
Project conceived on the background of:
an increased transition from face to face to remote teaching and learning
most universities opting to use internet technologies and or approaches for remote instruction
inadequate literature and interventions designed for under developed/facilitated universities and countries
Project set out to:
investigate the level of preparedness of students for the online mode of instruction
compare teaching and learning technologies, their availability and affordability to students and instructors
study student response & preferences to different lecture resources and activities during an online course
analyze the effect of student online participation on their performance in an online course
develop computer programs and/or software for analysis of online-user data
f2f lectures
Face to face (f2f) lectures conducted, recorded and made available
Blended lectures
Mixed f2f and online lectures conducted, recorded and made available
Online lectures
Online lectures conducted, recorded and made available
Recorded f2f lectures
Example of recorded f2f lecture
